Hemiciclo a Juárez

It was the Mexican leader Porfirio Díaz—a dictator having ruled the country just before the revolution—who commissioned this grand monument to honour President Benito Juárez, a man who tirelessly fought against social injustice and transformed Mexico into a modern nation, free from its long colonial past. With its elegant neoclassical style and semi-circular design, this stunning landmark, inaugurated in 1910, is a popular photo spot in the city. At the center stands a statue of Juárez holding the Constitution, surrounded by two allegorical figures representing the homeland and the law. A powerful tribute to a man who has permanently marked the country!
